Eric,

They aren't german IMO,...could be swiss or other nation, or even civilian issue.

I think I know who offers these currently and he has more crap listed there. All his items in general are heavely worn. His footgear is a mix of genuine postwar-modified stuff in terrible condition and postwar german "look a likes" that are treatened with oil (like this pair) to give "that look"...

Let's wait for Manny or for one of our GJ-experts (Bart or Patrick) to give some more information.

Cheers

The six-sided eyelets are typical of Slovack low boots;these boots could be anything but one thing is doggone sure;they ain't German!

Hi Jan,
you know darn well I hate to name names, so I'll ask you very confidentially(....ain't she sweet?...no..that's an old song !):
is PANIXX or KAJOV you're referring to?

Manny, "Panixx" that is, although I think he sells under another name now. You know very well of who I'm talking about.
